a.
To construct: A
To describe: The overall pattern.
b.
To construct: A quadratic regression model and identify the estimated mean response.
c.
To add: The estimated mean response in the scatterplot obtained in part (a).
To explain: The reason for recommending quadratic regression model for predicting the radioactive decay.
d.
To construct: A scatterplot for the transformed variable count against time in seconds.
e.
To construct: The simple linear regression model, the scatterplot with the estimated regression line and the residual plots.
f.
To show: Whether the linear regression model with transformed variable obtained in part (e) is better than the quadratic model obtained in part (b).
